Your Trusted Pharmacy
With over 50 years of dedicated service, Day-Nite Pharmacy has been a trusted part of the Durban community. Our branches in Northway and Umhlanga are known for dependable care, accessibility, and a genuine commitment to the people we serve.
Day-Nite Pharmacy is more than a place to collect a prescription. It is a community pharmacy where relationships matter and where patients are supported with care, continuity, and respect. Owned and managed by the Patel family, our two branches serve as local hubs for professional pharmacy care and trusted health advice.
At the heart of our approach is a simple understanding: medicine affects real people living real lives. From children navigating ADHD, to grandparents managing diabetes, to parents dealing with unexpected side effects — we know that no two patients are the same. That’s why our philosophy is clear: see the person, not just the prescription.
Northway Day-Nite Pharmacy is our flagship store and a long-standing Durban North institution, led by Responsible Pharmacist Kas Naicker. Our Umhlanga branch, headed by Responsible Pharmacist Dhashnie Pather, has earned a reputation for consistent service and patient support. This commitment was recognised when we were honoured to be named Best Pharmacy in Durban 2024 & 2025 — an accolade that reflects our belief in treating every patient with care, dignity, and attention.
Whether you’re a new parent, managing a chronic condition, or simply seeking trusted advice, our pharmacists are here to support you with professionalism, empathy, and experience.
